A simulation-based inference method with Gaussian process emulators trained on 1300 kilonova simulations recovers parameters accurately and rapidly while avoiding MCMC biases from likelihood misspecification.
Multi-shell modeling shows outward 56Ni mixing produces faster brighter rises and biases one-zone fits to lower ejecta mass and higher nickel fraction, while r-process signatures in collapsars depend on placement, distribution, and viewing angle rather than always showing NIR excess.
More complete lanthanide line data in radiative transfer modeling requires a lanthanide mass fraction of only 2.5e-3 to match the observed spectrum of AT 2017gfo, twenty times below prior claims.
Optimization of dielectronic recombination rates for U II-IV using AUTOSTRUCTURE, benchmarked on Nd III, for implementation in kilonova radiative transfer with SUMO.
